Pacemaker Pocket DJ

What You Need to Know

It's basically an MP3 player with a 120 gig hard drive that has two channels

You can cross fade between each channel using the line out, and you can cue up each channel with headphones

This allows you to match beats on both channels and mix

The Pacemaker editor helps you figure out how many beats per minute each track is

You drop all your music into the software and it calculates your bpms; the software takes way too long to do this, and it's not the most accurate

Once you know how fast or slow the songs are, you can do all your mixing from the software

Visually, it's really easy to match beats by dragging the bpm line up or down to speed up or slow down

Add effects like filters, loops, and cross-fades

The software supports all of the functions the Pacemaker itself has, so you can save mixes on the device or upload them to the Pacemaker site

Select a channel, double tap the touch pad, and call up a song on each

Each button has a million different functions depending on if you're holding up the pacemaker switch on the side

Match the bpms, cue the track in your headphones, and play it according to the other channel's beat

If you want to do effects, you have to know the combination of touching on the pad; it's the same with lots of other functions, and this is where it becomes not a beginner device

It's not quite available in the states, but we'd like to see the touch pad turn into a touch screen, more buttons and the price drop to about $400
